I finally got to see Sherlock Holmes this weekend. All my friends had gone to see it already and told me how great it was. I thought it was a good movie, but the parts where they would play it in slow motion and tell you what he was thinking while he was doing it that was ok, was it nessisary for them to replay it after - NO! Thank heavens it was only a couple of times in the beginning. Other than that the movie was good. I don't think the story line was as clear as it could have been and the relationship between watson and his girl was a bit much. They made it seem as though the guy had never gotten laid. The overall movie felt like a part 2 - like we should have already known what was going on and the relationship between Holmes and Watson before we saw it.
In previous movies and shows about Sherlock Holmes and Watson Watson has always been protrayed as a large man that knows less. A side kick that listens more than he speaks and is learning along with us. In this movie we was the smart one, the one that kept a clear head, and the one that kept Holmes out of trouble.
I liked the old inventions and historical references overall I would give this movie 3 Stars.
